The Kapistoni Goruli Mtsvane appears a light amber color in the glass. ​Primary aromas of yellow apples, yellow-fleshed apricot, and orange zest. ​Fresh walnuts, almonds, chestnut honey and spring flowers offer secondary aromas that linger in the nose.​ On the palate, the tannin structure is dry and nutty, with hints of dry apricot, green apples and plums. It offers a characteristic, long-lasting natural wine feel in the palate.

100% Goruli Mtsvane

Once the grapes are crushed, the juice is placed along with the skins inside the Qvevri to start their initial fermentation process. During this crucial time, the winemaker stirs the wine with a special wooden stick every three hours to prevent a crust of skins forming at the top of the juice. Depending on the type of wine, skins stay during fermentation for a period of three to six months. After that, the wine is separated from the skins and transferred to another Qvevri to continue the aging process. This transfer may occur three to four times during the entire aging period to separate it from other residues. 

Kapistoni wines are natural and made with the best grapes from the harvest. We source our grapes exclusively from ecologically cultivated vineyards in the region of Kartli, where ancient, indigenous grape varietals thrive.
